" 3 rd . " That although the effort * of fee AssociatioB abould Tje directed to the enlightenmentof all classes of the people , tie labouring population sboold mainly be kept in Tiew , as the class from which Sib great oody of tha army and navy is drawn , jad consequently the greatest sufferers under the present system .

" After ¦ which this great meeting quietly
separated . CBEXtTENHX ^ vI . — Mr . Bairstow is turning Cheltenham upside down : hi » lectures are bringing all classes to their proper senses . He lectured on Menday and Tuesday evenings to crowded audiences , at the Mechanics' Institution , frequently interrupted by the cheers and plaudits of the meeting . No man ever won tha respect of all clarees in the manner that Mr . B&irstow hs « . At the dose of the lectnrta a vote ef thanks was proposed to Mr . Bairstow by Mr . Glenister , -nd seconded by Mr . MQsom ; and likewise a
resolution pledging ihe meeting to adhera to the principles so ably advocated and defended by the lecturer , Vnich iraB CSTJednuanimcrasIy . Several members-were enrolled after « achleetnre . On Wednesday evening , Mr . Bairstow lectured at the Temperance Hall , Baih-road , to a crowded aadienee . The lecturer here went into his rabjecS in sbTBToqneot and forcible manner , crushing grtry felisb objecnoa usually brought against the Charter . At ths dose of the lecture eighteen members were enrolled . Three cheers were given for the worthy lecturer , and three for Fesrgus O'Connor , Esq ., and the meeting separated , highly delighted .
' qusatvl—A-cGording to previous announcement calling upon the people to attend b meeting in the field behind the Albion Inn , at ten o ' clock in the forenoon . At the time appointed , great numbers were seen wending their way to fee place of meetiag . Mr . Abel Swan , of Askton ,. and Mi- Roberts , ef Wanington , delivered very appropriate sermons on the occasion . In the afternoon , at t ^ o o ' clock , Mr . Dyson , of Slossley , and others addressed the peoplfi . At these two meetings not less Ban 12 , 000 persons were present Another meeting took place at six in the evening , consisting of 35 ODD persona . Mr . Edward Clark , of Manchester , and Mr . Dyson , of ilessley , addressed them , and gave great satisfaction . All was peace and harmony .
DUNDEE . —The cause of the people iz steadily progressing in thiB quarter . The town ia divided into districts , and each district is being formed into an association ; this plan seems to be working beneficially for the movement , particularl y in so far as at thOTwefcly meetings , where the principles of the Charter are regularly discussed , a number are induced to . give their attendance "who were never in the habit of attending general meetings of the Chartists . On Wednesday evening last , one of these meetings was held ia Miss Easson ' s school room , Middle Wynd , Hawkbill , Mr . Alexander Hankin in the chair . It was addressed by Mr . Mitchell it great length , upon the absolute necessity of a thorough onion amongst the working classes , and
Messrs . Adam , Graham , and others afterwards addressed them , when a district anion was formed . We long had occasion to complain of the oppostirion of the middle-class men to onr cause . The question was always put « 4 ffeen will the middle class come OTer to you ? Tnaa , however , tells tales , and God knows we are getting over she middleoeracy to us "holus bolns" or in other words all in a lump . We do not assert that they are coming from a thorough conviction of the truth uf our principles , © r tie necessity of acting upon them . O no , bat thank heaven what could not be accomplished by argument has been brought about by circumstances . What they could Bot make oat to see they are now compelled to feel . The system is fast swelling the list of the non-electors from the Tanks of the shopocracy . Sbop-shnttins is the erder ef the day . Xet a stranger enter oar town from the harbour * and proceed along T 7 nioa £ « reet , and there he will find every third shop
to lei . Let him tarn eastward via High-street , Leogate , Blackseroft , &e . &e ^ and all presents to Ms view , ihe same dull and holiday-like indications of a want of trade . The fact is , that we need not particularise any ene part of the town to "find oitf the distress which exists ; for from the extremetles to tscentre , is presents but one humiliating spectacle of departed glory . At this moment neither jeweller , watchmaker , bookseller , draper , nor grocer , can manage to eke out ' a middle-class existence without hariogTeeoorBe to what he has contrived , to save in more prosperous times , or to the other alternative of eating up his stock . The "working man ia starving in his everlasting clothes . He has no money wherewith tobaj the common necessaries of life , from the shopkeeper . Talk of converts to the Charter indeed , this state ef tfeisgs will make more converts to the Charter ttaaall ike arguments which could be adduced . - -- * -- ¦ - —¦— ¦ - ¦ '" '

was then given to Mr . George Mounsey , mayor , for the courteous manner in which he had received the deputation , which was carried unanimously , after which a vote of thanks was given to the Chairman and the people peaceably dispersed . It may be proper to state , that Mr . Hanson wished to decline in favour of Mr . Arthur , but if the other parties persisted he would most willingly stand . GREENOCK . —An important public meeting was bdd here oa Friday week , in the open air , to take into coEsideratjoxi the right of holding publicL meetings , and also to give an expression of opinion in the case of Mason aud the others who are suffering with him , Mr . James Boyd was called to the chair , and opened the business in a neat and spirited
adtiress . He impressed on the assembled multitude , which could not be less than from three thousand to six , to shew by their conduct this night , that they were worthy of the privilege they are assembled to maintain . a £ r . James Black proposed the first resolution , wMchwas to the following purport : — "That this meeting view with feelings of indignation the contemptible conduct of the Staffordshire authorities and their emissaries , ia their late attempt to stifla public opinion , by disturbing the people of Ssdgley , when peaceably and constitutionally assembled for the purpose of discussing their grievances , and also in apprehending Mason and others - when they . were guilty of no crime , aa they were only giving expression to their feelings on the manitoJd grievances under which they now labour . "
Sxr . Peter Campbell briefly seconded it , and Mr . Joseph M'Lean supported it iu a speech of considerable length . It was then carried unanimously , air . Robert Barrel ! brought forward the second resolution , *• That this maeting is fully convinced tnal the inhabitants of thi 3 country have a right to meet and discus 3 their grievances , whether national or local , when , how , and where thsy please , so long as they do not disturb the public peace , or 'nfringe on the rights of others ; and that the disturbing or preventing of srich meetiDgsbj any party or parties is unconstitutional , and ought to be resisted ; seeing that it is an undisputed fact that all government originated from , was detefcned to protect , and is supported by the whole people ; U therefore follows , that it ought to be under their coistroul . That the
attemp : to justify the conduct of the Staffordshire authorities by her Maje&tv ' j Ministers goos to prove that xbxy are unworihy of the confidence of her M-ij ^ ty , and ' we agree to memorialise her Majesty to dismiss ihem from office , and rake into her Council mtn who will make the People ' s Charter a cabinet measure . ? Mr . Thomas ' Milne seconded the resohuiyn , and Mr ; Samuel Kidd , from Glasgow , supported it . Mr- M'Lean proposed that the part of ihe resolution " to memorialise her Majesty , " be struck out , and the word 3 " that we are determined for ourselves , and would recommend it to the country to unite , seeing that it is only in ourselves that we can have any hope for a redress of onr grievances , " be substituted . Mr . J . Johnson seconded the amendment , and it , was carried unanimously j after which the meeting broke up .

FACTORY TYRANIty AND THE CORN \ l , AW ROTEALERS . TO THE EDITOR OF THB KOETHEBN STAB . SlE , —As a specimen of the liberality and good intentions of the Corn Law Repealers towards the industrious and forbearing individuals under thai * eantroolt I send job . a copy of the rules stack up for the edification of the cotton spinners employed in a mill ot hell not a hundred miles from Bardsley , near this town , and the worthless proprietors are of the Cobden school of liberals . Those rules are adhered to with the most savage rigidity , and the persona to whom they do not or cannot extend , whether male or female , are visited by these praiseworthy admirers of the big loaf with corporal punishment , in the event of the merest accident taking place , or their work not answering their hardhearted employers , who , a few years ago , were practical operatives themselves , aad now look down , with scorn on all vrho toil for bread .
They employ ten spinners , and it is well known m this town and neighbourhood that since their entry into the trade , they have had more than twenty sets of spinners ; they are ever watching the poor slaves while at work , just like policemen watching thieves ; and one of the parties is ever present from the starting . time in the morning until they are liberated at night j and the factory law is shamefully violated every day . The following are tho rules posted up in each room : 1 . The spinners in this mill shall be paid for spinning ona thousand hanks of forty's two shillings and threepence , and for one thousand hanks of thirty-nine ' s , two shillings and twopence . 2 . if any spinner spins less than twenty-one hanks to the spindle , his price shall be two shillings and twopence , and if less than twenty hanks per Bpindle , one shilling and tenpence .
3 . Every set of cops under fifty-six pounds weight sent in by any spinner , he shall be fined one shilling for each aet t . Any spinner lashing his cops under , or for general bad spinning , shall have nothing for that set or sets . 5 . Any spinner throwing away any thing , or if his piecer should throw away any thing , shall be fined one shiMnc . 6 . Any part of the machinery broke while at \ rorfe , to be paid for by the spinner .
REMARKS . The first rule may not admit of complaint , although the price is considerably lower than is paid on the sama number of spindles for the same work at many other mills . But tbe second rule is so unbearable that scores of useful and steady workmen have left this strong hold of tyranny sooner thin submit to it , as accidents or other causes often prevent men from doing the length required , and yet no allowance is made for these daily casualties . The third rule has been put in . force not a month ago * wtere the set was only one ounce above the fifty-six , pounds , ana it is a physical impossibility -which the employ are well know , to make them always that weight , aa the weathtr , the quality of the cotton , the speed of the propelling pawer and other unforeseen causes , prevents , and a certain number of sets must be done or thty undergo ihe penalty of the second rale .
But the fourth rale is decidedly the worst , and clearly shews to . avaricious propensity of the monster of liberality in its true colours . The proprietors are the sole judges of this offence called" general bad spinning , " and it is very easy to find fa . nlt , as it rarely happens that two spinners make a cop the earns ahspeor in tbe < saja way ; and if they have only been in their employ a single day the rules are enforced with air due rigour . Cops lashed under are not reckoned useless or rendered so , as they can be reeled ; aid it is not always the spinner ' s fault ; it often happens that the guiding wire ( technically called a faller ) is out of order ; all men cannot adjust them , and if they could , few places permit thtm ; the overlooker must do it or the wheels stand . .
Aad how iniquitous is tBTnTth rule , to make man responsible for the faults or follies of another , who if he was to r " ' - '"' or disc&arge for this same throwing , he Would , as has been the case before , get bagged himself . And then the villainy of the sixth rule which makes a man pay for an broken machiney , as if it would last for ever , but this rule has often been enforced by the liberal and virtuous firm referred to . Hoping you will allow the light of the Star to shine en the darknesss of these accursed " rattle boxes . " I am , &c , A Peeseccted Cottoh Spinner . Ashton , August 7 , 1842 .

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NOETHKEM STAR . Sir . —Although personally unknown to yen , I feel not the slightest hesitation , where the great Interests of Chartism require it in claiming a short space in your columns , and as little doubt that you will willingly afford your powerful assistance to your Irish brethren , fighting under many and almost overwhelming disadvantages , the great battle of liberty . Notwithstanding all that the true friends of the people have had to contend with here : the undisguised and bitter hostility * f all those that batten upon the rottenness of the present system , and who , of consequence , hate the name and amis of Chartism ; the narrowminded prejudices artfully fostered by designing knaves in the minds of the lower classes , as they are termed
against every thing of English origin—and the jealousy of the Corn Exchange orators lest their dupes should at length open their eyes and button ap tbiir pocketsnotwithstanding the covert insinuations and public denouncements to which we have been ubjected by tbe licentious tongue of the ttcn-impofctoi himself , who beheld his craft iu danger , and dreaded the diminution of the rint—maugre all these obstructions , and in the absence of either wealth , influence , or great talent amongst us , perseverance alone has procured us success to Una amount—that we have enrolled on car book » at tee present moment 1 , 000 men—that we have stripped Chartism of me hideous mask in which intelligent roguery and superstitious ignorance had dressed
itthat we have set men a-thinking and a-talking on the subject—that thousands in our city now declare they are ready to join our ranks , and impatiently await the moment when their capricious fogle-man ahall have given the permissive signal—that we have silenced the second rate orators amongst the Repealers completely , and taken the squeak out of the "Liberator" himself . Added to -which we forwarded the other day to Shannon Crawford , Esq ., a petition nearly the same as the national one , subscribed by at least 3 , 000 genuine signatures i I much fear , however , that owing to Mr . Crawford's having left London on the day on which it arrived , that tbe petition cannot be presented till next session , -when the signatures will of course be greatly augmented .
At the suggestion of some in owe Association who Btill entertain the lingering impressions of political childhood regarding the integrity of Mr . O'Connell , I forwarded to him the following , it will ba allowed at least , respectful letter : — Dublin , No . 26 . North King-street , July 30 , 1842 . iiv toRD , —TUe Association to which I have the honous of being secretary are of opinion that they would Dbt be acting with the respect due to your Lordship , as the most leading political character in Ireland , were we to omit enclosing your Lordship a copy of the petition emanating from their body , and intrusted for presentation to Mr * William Sharman Crawford .
My Lord , the main prayer of that petition is for an extension of the electoral right to every man non-eonvict of felonious crime , who has attained the age of twenty-one years ; in other words , for what ( without being hypercritical ) may be justly , logically , and grammaVicaUy styled Universal Suffrage . We ate very -well a-waie , my iKird , that the regulations of the Hon&a of Commons do not now allow a discussion on the merits of petitions without a specific motion for the purpose ; but we also know , my Lord , that legal ingtnuity , which no lawyer living , perhaps , possesses to an equal extent with your Lordship , can do much to evade the stringency of such rules ; and I am , therefore , to request , on behalf of tbe body for which I act , that should you approve of the contents of this petition , which is similar , though somewhat abated in tone to the English National Petition , which you supported , that you will render as all the assistance which your acknowledged ability and unquestionable adroitness can afford .
My Lord , it would be presumptuous m me , it would be ui just to others , to suppose teat of the host of officials and adherents by whom y «» u are surrounded ; who are supported by your influence , and on whom is reflected the second-hand lustre of your great popularity ; none have been found hardy enough to inform you of the important , and in my mind , glorious truth , that the people of Ireland are rapidly learning , and as rapidly adopting the political creed of the Chartists of England .
My Lord , our Association has now upon its books 1 , 000 members who have taken out cards , despite all the opposition afforded by those whom I will in charity suppose misunderstood onr objects , or doubted the legality of our organixjtion . It must be also within the knowledge of those by whom you are surrounded , if not within your own , that thousands are predisposed , nay , eager , to join our ranks , were they not held back by those motives of prudence which master principle in mercantile men , that dread of dennnolatiOB - which restrain * convinced but timid politician * ,
And yet , my Lord , when I find yon on the Jatt dsy you attended the Corn Exchange , declaring that you knew of no other Association in Inland than that there assembled , lam at a leas to nooneile the assertion With the knowledge Of the political state aad feeling of tbe country which you should possess . With tbe truth and vigilance of thow whose doty demanded of them to apprise you of the fact , that there is in Ireland a j > arty who have determined that the bamti of freeman shall cease to be a distinctive appellation in these countries ; who have resolved to devote their best energies to effecting , by strictly moral sod leg *! means , the -political emancipation of the slaw pcpnteBrooittiU empire , ;• , ? ..

m « i i « . « ' WlLMAM H . DYOTT ; To Daniel O'Cqnnell ; Esq ., M . p . ¦ P J . 4-M may be as well to remark , that the first occurring name 8 , those on the sheet containing the petition itself , are those of electors ; of course there are many others scattered through the subtended ones .
- •¦ , - ¦¦ ¦ ¦ ¦;¦ ¦ ' ¦ / , ¦ - ¦ . ;¦ :: ¦¦; , w . h . d . ¦ What , Sir , do you think was the Man of the People ' s gentlemanly reply ?—the word Bab . I ! I superscribed on each paragraph I Thus expressing his contempt , not only for the principles embodied In the letter and petition , a * well as the association of which I have the honour to be an officer ; but also for the entire of the subscribers to the petition , amongst -whom should he ever again dare to stand for the City tf Dublin , be wiU fiad r-to hia diaoomflture , there were at least one hundred electors .
Sir , this was no doubt intended as an insult of the most cutting order by Mr . O'Connell ; but , T think , you and every refleotive man will regard it rather as the very highest triumph that the Irish Universal Suffrage Association could achieve over their raest formidable and dextrous enemy . " tat your opponent in the wrong , " is hl « own favourite axiom . How completely is this splenetic , peevish . Irascible ^ vindictive , and unf * vgiving old man put in the wrong here ! In . order to gratify his own bad passions , and tbe malignant revenge which be feels for those who have struck the barb of truth thfohgb . hfa hitherto-considered , invulnerable sides , and exposed the dark iniquities of his dealings with the pillaged and betrayed Irish peoplehe forgets the courtesy of a gentleman—he loses the
temper of a philosopher and a atatesmau—nay , by the mass ! he flings aside the dignity of an un-be-knighled lard mayor too—pitches the solemn recollections of eatfn breeches , velvet robes , and cooked hat to the devil—and BBizing with a hand trembling with age and enmity , the pen , he scrawls over the words of juBtiee and truth the syllable which exactly expresseB the amount of his regard for either . " BaA !¦' for the Charter , and a button for Repeal t !! How thanfefnl ought we to be that thla man ' s weakness has bere betrayed bis wickedness ! The publication of this letter , and its ridiculous reply , will do more to undeceive the unthinking supporters of this huge incubus on the progress of real and rational liberty in Ireland , than a thousand speeches . He ia already sensible

Mooiiey , who sought to depreciate his master ' s personal vengeance , for having roafle himself too popuhr , by sending dolly rs in busbela from America , has been called a mougrel , " is offended , and will send no more . The wardens are uuable to wring , by meuace and bullying , even farthings from the impoverished and already sufficiently fleeced people . The mendicant knows we have been greatly instrumental in traversing bis designs on tho pocketaof the poor ; and hence his rabid hatred of our Association . But his reign , baaed on the ignorance and fatuity of a generous and nnthinkbg nation ,
drawa to a close . The light of truth is fast breaking in upon the mlnda of Irishmen , and they are already well prepared to transfer their devotion from & political adventurer who has plundered them to glut his family and creatures with the spoils of their confiding credulity , to those eternal principles of justice , freedom , and common sense contained in the Charter , and upheld by the powerful advocacy ; of the Northern Star .
